No smells but there is a whinny noise and rev up a lot when I press the gas to speed up then before it will chang gears I have to release the gas petal and it will change gears. It will go into reverse but not drive in revers. Will rev up and everything but drive.

I was backing into my drive way and slip of the side as has happened before but it hit the driveway this time and thru in into traction control that's when the whinning stated.
